The Celoxis Application Programming Interface (API) is another way to access Celoxis — one that makes it easy for third-party and custom tools to programatically access and interact with the service.

The principal design objectives behind the API are:

• Simplicity and easy of use
• Language independence - you should be able to use any programming language like Java, .NET.
• Flexibility - you should be able to leverage the full power of SQL

Celoxis provides you with 2 ways to extract data from the database:

• XML/JSON
• PHP-API
